“The Editorial Board and the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners are extremely pleased that the Journal of Pediatric Health Care has been accepted by Thomson Reuters,” commented Editor-in-Chief Martha K. Swartz, PhD, RN, Yale University School of Nursing. “This coverage will help to further increase dissemination of the journal’s content throughout the health care community and support our mission to promote optimal health for children through leadership, practice, advocacy, education and research.”

The Journal of Pediatric Health Care has continued to attract increasingly high-quality papers with direct relevance to patient care and addressing current issues impacting the field. The editorial board actively encourages original didactic or research articles concerning pediatric clinical practice (primary care, acute care, specialty care, home health care and school health), health care policy or role issues relating to the pediatric nurse practicing in an expanded role.

“Coverage by Thomson Reuters clearly acknowledges the high-quality, significant work published in the journal and the continuing efforts of the highly-respected editors, reviewers and the Association. We at Elsevier would like to thank them all for their contribution to this excellent achievement," stated Elsevier’s Shannon Magee, Publisher of the Journal of Pediatric Health Care.

The Journal of Pediatric Health Care is also abstracted and indexed by CINAHL® (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), MEDLINE® and Scopus®.
